Recently i installed TouchDesigner. When i open an empty project or the default project when you launch TD for the first time. it crashes. even when i dont do anything and just watching to see what happens, it crashes. My pc configs are I5-12400 - 16GB Ram DDR4 - RTX 4060ti 16GB - 1TB SSD NVME- WIN 11 I also have another question, can this pc run TD or not? i just want to make sure. Thank you!
Hi @Majiidd
Do you get a crash dump ? If yes can you share it / them. Thanks.
Other than that, make sure that all your drivers, including integrated graphic drivers, are up to date and that your machine is free of bloatware.
The Bulk Crap Uninstaller helps in identifying unwanted or unneeded software: https://www.bcuninstaller.com/
Find the latest driver for your GPU at Official Drivers | NVIDIA
or use Nvidia Geforce Experience Update Drivers & Optimal Playable Settings
You can also make sure that your integrated GPU is running on the latest version available via Intel Driver Assistant.
You can use the AMD Adrenalin if you have an AMD Integrated GPU, in minimal install mode, via https://www.amd.com/en/products/software/adrenalin.html
If your machine comes with a proprietary power management software (From Asus, Dell / Alienware… etc), make sure that it’s setup properly to run TouchDesigner on the Nvidia / AMD DEDICATED GPU when plugged to power. Otherwise, it’s likely that TouchDesigner would run on the integrated graphics, hence it is important to also make sure your integrated graphics are up to date.
If the issue persists, try to generate a dump using Using WinDbg to Debug Crashes - Derivative
